Poison has reunited and is going to release a covers CD that will include their take on "What I Like About You." The recording is reportedly up on Poison's MySpace.com page even as we speak. I can't access MySpace from work, so I can't provide a link, but even as much distaste as I have for Poison, I'd like to hear what they did to the song.

I just listened to it too. I'm indifferent to it. I definitely like the original a lot more, but Poison's version is no worse (probably better) than all the pop remakes that we've been assaulted (or should that be insulted?) with. I would've liked it more if they hadn't "embellished" it the way they did.

Yeah, they "poisoned" it all right. To me it just sounds like any crappy cover version that you hear all summer long at some block party that makes you kinda cringe when you hear it. By comparison, it does make the original really snap, crackle and pop.
